Blogrimage Nyolc napon: Magyarország (Hungary)

So, today takes us to the nation of Hungary, not to be confused with the word hungry...as i typed just a second ago :)

Hungary is one of the top 30 tourist destination averaging about 8.6 million visitors a year. One of the great draws to Hungary is the old architecture and the thermal water cave system. In fact, Hungary has the second largest thermal lake in the world. This lake is called Lake Heviz, and it believed that the water is replenished entirely each day by the strong water flow. This is quite remarkable seeing as the lake is 511,000 square feet. (At least I think the lake is big, I am not to good with square measurements.)

Just an fyi, a thermal lake is similar to a hot spring, like the ones found in Colorado.

Ok, so the Capital of Hungary is Budapest, and from what I have heard from some of my friends, it is one of the most gorgeous cities. There is so much to do there, from visiting historical sites to watching a current American movie. This city supposedly "has it all," which is why so many people visit it.

Budapest, Hungary is one city that I would love to go to. When I lived in Ukraine, it was one of those places that I wanted to visit, but never got around to it. However, one day i will!


Well, that is all for tonight...tomorrow we will be going someplace cold. Can you guess where to?
